Hello

I lied to you

I lied to myself

The truth will out, no doubt

And that’s when the sympathy dries up

I hit a wall

I fell to the floor

Burned every bridge and learned

The hard way that gravity always wins


I’m breaking and changing

Dismantling pride

Feeding and bathing the child inside

Forging my mettle

Rewriting the show

Shattering pretense

Real me says “hello”


I played the fool

I fed on excess

I tried to do so much

That was shallow and pointless

Used everyone

Demanded my way

The toys must go

I know it’s high time I cleaned out my attic


I’m breaking and changing

Dismantling pride

Feeding and bathing the child inside

Forging my mettle

Rewriting the show

Shattering pretense

Real me says “hello”

Hello!


I’m breaking and changing

Dismantling pride

Feeding and bathing the child inside

Forging my mettle

Rewriting the show

Shattering pretense

Real me says “hello”


I’m drawing a line

It’s terrifying

The hero was fake

I am what I am

I’m growing a conscience

And empathy

The doors are wide open

Hello to me

Hello!


I’m breaking and changing

Hello!
